We manufacture, assemble, program, and integrate your Pick & Place system, ensuring seamless communication and operation with your existing production equipment.
We test and validate accuracy, speed, and repeatability before installation, then commission the system and provide training and ongoing technical support.
FAQ's about Pick & Place Machine
How do you determine whether we need a vibratory bowl feeder or a flexible feeding system?
The decision depends on part geometry, production volume, number of product variants, required orientation, and changeover frequency. Bowl feeders are typically well suited to consistent, high-volume applications, while vision-guided flexible feeding can be better for multiple part variants and frequent changeovers.
Can one feeding system handle multiple part sizes or product variants?
Yes, depending on the application. Flexible feeding systems can use programmable recipes, machine vision, and robotic handling to accommodate multiple components without requiring a dedicated mechanical feeder for every part.
What information do you need from us to design a custom parts feeder?
Part samples are particularly valuable because actual feeding behavior can differ from what drawings suggest. Dimensions, weight, material, geometry, surface finish, allowable orientation, target feed rate, downstream equipment, and the required presentation at the feeder exit should also be defined.
How do you prevent parts from jamming or feeding in the wrong orientation?
The feeding method is engineered around the component’s geometry and required exit orientation. Depending on the application, tooling, sensors, recirculation, controlled vibration, machine vision, or robotic picking can be used to reject, reorient, or recirculate incorrectly presented parts instead of allowing them downstream.
Can feeding equipment handle delicate, coated, polished, or irregularly shaped components?
Yes, but the feeding method needs to be selected around the component. Flexible feeding can be particularly useful for delicate or complex parts because controlled presentation and vision-guided picking can reduce dependence on hard mechanical tooling and repeated track contact
Can a feeder synchronize directly with robots, assembly equipment, or inspection systems?
Yes. A feeding system can combine sensors, controls, machine vision, and industrial communication with downstream automation so components are presented when and where the next operation requires them. Flexible feeding architectures commonly coordinate feeders, vision systems, and robotic handling as one integrated process.
How quickly can the feeding system change over to another product?
The feeder should be engineered around the required production rate rather than treated as an isolated machine. Controls, sensors, buffering, and accumulation strategies can coordinate material supply with downstream demand to help prevent starvation, excessive accumulation, and unnecessary stops.
How do you design a conveyor system for a facility with limited floor space?
Changeover depends heavily on the feeding technology. Dedicated mechanical feeders may require physical adjustments or tooling changes, whereas flexible systems can use stored recipes, vision settings, and quick-change robotic tooling to substantially simplify product changes.
